RECIPE FOR A MIRACLE
Hebrews 11:6 - And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone
who comes to Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who
earnestly seek Him. Recipe: 1 cup Tension, 2 cups Stress, 1 ½ teaspoons
of Guilt, 2 heaping cups of Limited Time, ¾ tablespoon of Urgency,
A dash of No Other Choice, 3 heaping cups of Faith. Fold ingredients gently
into a bowl. Mix vigorously and add a few tears. You'll sweat a little as
you knead the dough. Pack it firmly between your hopes and dreams and form
into a perfect little ball. Sprinkle it with a little faith - I recommend
Hebrews 11, rolling the ball in the flour until fully covered. Place it under
a veil of belief and allow it to rise. Put it in an oven that has been pre-set
at the perfect temperature for the heat of trials and tribulations. Allow
it to brown under the warmth of God's love. Remove after due season and allow
to cool in the confidence of His promise. Garnish with your praises. Arrange
neatly on a platter of thankfulness and serve to friends, families and, oh
yes, strangers - invite them too! Pass on the recipe to all who request it
and let them know that with this recipe, they have the makings of a miracle!
